SVX with skyline tail lights

Here's one for all the hecklers out there. Should have kept it OE, but that's me.

Re: SVX with skyline tail lights

WTH are "proxie" tires? I've heard of "Proxes" before... Actually doesn't look too bad, but I would like to see some bigger pictures of it, see if it only looks good cuz the pictures are tiny

Re: SVX with skyline tail lights

Never say I didn't do anything for you guys:









I gotta admit, I originally asked for them to make fun of the car, but the tail lights look good. I'd ditch the skirt, and an undamaged front bumper might've given it a better look. Props for being a different SVX. I haven't seen one this modified aesthetically since that Russian SVX with the chromameleon paint job.l

Two wheels are on backwards.

The car does not look right.

The lights are kinda neat but because there is no wraparound or license plate the car looks unfinished, never mind the damage and lack of appropriate wheels.

Re: SVX with skyline tail lights

the overall appearance could use a lot of improving, but it could work very well given the proper modification.

On the plus-side, I love the green.

Re: SVX with skyline tail lights

To be honest, I think it looks like ass.

The tail lights were a cool idea, but the bodykit looks so amateurish.

+1

The taillights do look good on the SVX, but the entire section should be pushed more to the inside.

Check the side of the car, you can feel that he "glued" and not "integrate" the skyline part onto the SVX

Car is beat, that much is obvious. Just saying that there was some actual (but not whole-hearted) effort behind it all.

Re: SVX with skyline tail lights

I think from the rear its an awesome idea. With a nice side skirt set up, cloud comes to mind, and a less ricey front bumper, it would be a killer car. Im always pro different.

I think the rear looks like an impala.
